Utah mom left 'disabled' after COVID-19 vaccine trial launches first US lawsuit against AstraZeneca

 Prior to the pandemic, Brianne Dressen of Salt Lake City was living the active life she always wanted. She went rock climbing with her husband, a chemist for the U.S. Army; ferried her two children to and from soccer games and piano practices; and taught preschool.

Everything came to a screeching halt in November 2020 — not as a result of the union-driven school closures, the lockdowns, or the outcome of the election, but with her participation in an AstraZeneca vaccine trial.

 Dressen cannot bring a product liability action against the company on account of the federal Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act. She can, however, possibly ding the British-Swedish pharmaceutical giant for breach of contract, which is exactly what she aims to do.

Dressen filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah Monday alleging that she developed a debilitating neurological condition as a result of the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine and that the British-Swedish pharmaceutical giant failed to cover the cost of her medical care as promised.

When presented with Dressen's complaint, Daniel Horowitz, the host of "Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz" on the Blaze Podcast Network and author of "Rise of the Fourth Reich: Confronting COVID Fascism with a New Nuremberg Trial So This Never Happens Again," told Blaze News, "It is shocking how we now have thousands of academic and case studies of injuries affecting every organ system, yet victims remain alone with little legal recourse for compensation."

"We have VAERS, V-Safe, documents from the vaccine manufacturers, and European Medicines Agency reporting, all showing catastrophic levels of injury, yet there is no critical mass of a political movement in any country at this point to repeal unbridled indemnity of these criminal enterprises," continued Horowitz. "It's also peculiar how AstraZeneca was taken off the market, but the mRNA shots, which are even worse, remain funded and promoted by government." ....................

It's also peculiar how AstraZeneca was taken off the market ...

1. Aside from clinical trials, the AstraZeneca was never on the US "market". AstraZeneca never applied for US Emergency Use Authorization.

2. The Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine was taken off the market in countries where it was authorized/approved in 2024, when demand for Covid vaccines had substantially declined and the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine had been less well accepted than Pfizer's and Moderna's vaccine.

As for "... the mRNA shots, which are even worse ...", my response in my signature is still apt and true.

I mean, it was a trial. Anyone who partakes in a scientific trial like this assumes the risk.

And, I will note, as PeteS alluded to... the trial ultimately was unsuccessful, and though AZ sold it outside the United States, it was never authorized here, not even for emergency use.

The reason AZ did not submit its clinical trials data to the FDA in an application for Emergency Use Authorization is that in the trials in Brazil the dosing for one of the two shots was incorrect, basically making the data from Brazil useless. By the time this was discovered, Pfizer and Moderna were about to receive their authorizations and AZ decided that being late to the US market would go poorly. The UK and EuroLand, apparently, were satisfied with the data AZ had (they did trials in the US, UK, and South Africa, that I remember). In following news about vaccines, treatments, and related stuff (e.g. PPE) my focus was the US because I live here and my personal bandwidth isn't infinite.
